Can this card run 4 monitors smoothly? I am buying two splitters to run 2 27" monitors and 2 22" monitors for gaming so

Yes as previously said you would need active adapters. Not sure if you already know this but a splitter just recreates the same image on 2 screens. If you want 4 monitors displaying 2 monitors worth of images then yes that would work. If you want 4 separate images on each monitor then you need active adapters for each port.

I dont see why not, 3 run incredibly smooth. I got 1 asus, 2 Samsung. I say go for it!

yes but no. It will only run three as if you had one monitor can't remember the name for that. My brain hurts. You can set up two but it doesn't work quit right. You can duplicate screens or extend the desktop. If you have a game open on one monitor and click on the other screen to look something up it will minimize your game. So only 3 for complete use. I was disappointed but the card runs WOT, War thunder, Defiance, Titanfall and Star Citizen all at max with zero hiccups

Hi, This card will support two monitors simultaneously, as stated in the manual. Given that, I don't really see why you would want to drive one monitor from the card and one from the motherboard - using system RAM rather than dedicated graphics RAM. However, if the latter is what you wanted to do, I can't think why that would not work. But, it's a great card at a bargain price so why not drive two monitors from it?

I run two. I wouldn't recommend 3 with this card. I would rather get another video card that is better for that.

The card has three possible outputs to monitors, but I have never seen software that will drive three monitors. I use UltraMon and it is limited to a dual monitor setup. My guess is that you'll be limited by your choice of software/drivers.

No, this card is a 2 head card. For three monitors you would require a2 separate card with at least 2 video heads on 1 card. There are some cards on the market that have several heads VIA cables.

On Windows 7 it does support up to two. However, on Linux Mint 17 I was able to connect three monitors to this card on extended desktop using the xorg open source driver. (This card needed to be set as primary though in BIOS to do so.) I am not sure if three is okay for the hardware though given that the ATI proprietary driver does not allow for three monitors (only two) in Windows 7.

If you use Both DVI ports, and the HDMI at once, 3. I'm pretty sure you can use the DisplayPort to get 4 but I wouldn't expect good gaming framerates with more than 2 monitors.

Yes. You need to buy a splitter cable that has two ends. Pay attention to the end connectors and make sure they will work with your monitors. The software will install a small app in control panel for you so you can manipulate the settings. I have had zero problems with this card and the price is right!

This card will only drive two monitors. Worked well for me with the dual configuration.

I presently have three monitors connected to the card with two other slots available. Since I do not have the need for five monitors I have not tested such a configuration however, the three that I have work perfectly. One for gaming, one for general use, and the other for streaming Netflix movies. Being ADHD this config satisfies my need for multiple views. :-)

All depends on how much fps you want, it will only support two if you want More than 60 fps. Otherwise this card has two dvi and one hdmi so yeas you can support three different monitors.

I mean, it would run with two 780's... but the secondary PCIe slot is not a full speed slot, plus this board is from the GTX 600 series / AMD HD7000 series era so I'm inclined to say no. It would work, but your second 780 wouldn't see its full potential on only an 8X/4X slot. If you're going to spend that much money for two 780's, I'd get a board that is specifially designed for crossfiring high-end cards, where both PCIe bays can reach full 16X speed. This isn't what I'd call a high-end board.

I am running three monitors with this card. that is the max. cross fire yes, with certin other models only

Yes, you can run multiple displays. I bought the card primarily so that I could connect HDMI cable from the card to the monitor using HDMI port. I would suggest using the HDMI and the DVI ports on the card to the monitors, NOT the VGA port which would have the least video quality / resolutions support unless you do not have any monitors with HDMI connecitons. Then you will have to use VGA port.
